Best Answer

Your unemployment benefits will continue even if your employer declares bankruptcy. The unemployment insurance system is designed by each state to cover your expenses if you become unemployed in a qualified manner.

As long as you remain eligible to receive your weekly unemployment benefit rate, your benefits should not be halted at any time, unless you either become employed or discontinue your claim. The only other reason your claim may be stopped is because you have reached the end of your benefit term, and your available compensation has expired.

If your company has been paying its unemployment taxes to the state all along, its being bankrupt won't hurt your unemployment benefits because those are paid to you from the state's pool of taxes collected from all the employers. Of course, you still have to qualify as any other claimant, as far as the state is concerned.
